It burns

This woman was protesting an anti-immigrant rally held Aug. 18, 2007 by the Minutemen at the Seattle Federal Building when police pepper-sprayed her. The officers were aiming for another group of protesters who had used cardboard shields to push their way into the street and loft balloons at the Minutemen, a self-appointed border patrol group. One of the balloon-throwers was later arrested. Photo by Andrew Drawbaugh.
